You convert a designer’s Vision to functional, performant, and accessible HTML Components.

You work with our Frontend and Backend Developers so that they can add complex behavior on top of your components. (For that, we use ReactJS, Ruby on Rails, VueJS, Elixir, Svelte…whatever.

You don’t need to know any of these, but must be willing to understand the basics for working together. We help you, promise!)

How to apply

To be honest with you, we don’t like to read those standard letters of motivation. And we bet you don’t like writing them either. How about, you tell us who you are and what floats your boat. What makes you jump out of bed in the morning? Depending on the job you are applying for we'd love to see some projects you've been working on, code examples or designs so we can get an impression of your modus operandi. Work examples are more important to us than your grades!

You should convince us both professionally and personally, as our company is more than just a bunch of individuals that happen to sit in the same room whilst staring into their laptops. If both parties have the feeling to click, we will get back to you to clarify the terms, make you an offer and then eventually welcome you aboard.
